Do I call myself a pirate when I capture the loot? That's how I feel after I've spent the day treasure hunting. Mirror, mirror on the wall, your weren't the fairest mirror of all (hehee) so someone give it up for another to love. That's me.! Gold resin really wasn't the look I was going for. I figured out it's new LOOK rather quickly. I have a favorite white I use on all my redesigns. It got a few coats of Country White (wal-mart's own brand) then for the aged, patina look I used craft paint. An umber color. Only rubbing here and there then taking the paint off quickly before it dried. It's in the hallway just before my bedroom, I think it's a good place to hang this once not so fair mirror that's now my treasure. For more great treasures be sure to stop over at Diane'sA Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words. Thank you for your visit today.(a side note: I think I learned how to make the hyperlinks it looks "cleaner" around here without the copy/past techique I was using).
Have A blessed day

Yes it does indeed 'shine'. It is gorgeous! Love all the detail. I finally learned how to post links 'cleaner' too. I knew there had to be a way, just took me a minute.
You did a good job and saved that for another (you!) to love.
Beautiful...and the collection of vases are so pretty. Wish I could get a closer look at the pretty pink one on the right.
Happy Tues, Candy
